💰🔁 Reflection Tokens: The Passive Income You Don’t Understand (Yet)
Ever heard of a token that pays you just for holding it?
That’s exactly what reflection tokens do — and yet 90% of crypto users still don’t fully understand how they work or why they even exist.
Let’s break it down 👇
🧠 What is a Reflection Token?
A reflection token automatically distributes a % of every transaction (buy/sell/transfer) back to existing holders.
No staking. No farming. Just passive rewards.
📦 Example:
A 10% tax on each transaction might be split like this:
• 5% goes back to all holders (reflections)
• 3% into liquidity
• 2% to the dev wallet or burn
So every time someone buys/sells — your balance grows automatically 📈

🎯 Why it sounds great
• True set-it-and-forget-it income
• Rewards grow with more volume
• Encourages long-term holding (less dumping)
BUT… there’s a catch 👇
⸻
⚠️ The Dark Side of Reflections
• Unsustainable tokenomics: If the project has no real utility, reflections alone won’t save it
• Whale trap: Big holders earn most of the rewards
• Fake hype: Many projects use reflection as a buzzword with no real plan
💡 Pro tip: If a token has only reflections and no product, ecosystem or use case — it’s just a time bomb with nice packaging.
